    Old warfare was weird. Let’s all wear bright colours and line up and play music while we get shot at

      that’s because that was classical warfare with well established rules. You had bright uniforms because the enemy should be easily identifiable so you don’t mix them up with civilians. music is one of the easiest ways to communicate important information and keep people together where shouting may be drowned out or miscommunicated.

        Yeah I know the reasons for it, military doctrine was very different back then. Still, it’s funny when you frame it in a certain way 😄
